cuda.core.Kernel#

class cuda.core.Kernel(*args, **kwargs)#

Represent a compiled kernel that had been loaded onto the device.

Kernel instances can execution when passed directly into the launch() function.

Directly creating a Kernel is not supported, and they should instead be created through a ObjectCode object.

Methods

__init__(*args, **kwargs)#
static from_handle(
int handle: int,
ObjectCode mod: ObjectCode = None,
) Kernel#

Creates a new Kernel object from a foreign kernel handle.

Uses a CUkernel pointer address to create a new Kernel object.

Parameters:
  • handle (int) – Kernel handle representing the address of a foreign kernel object (CUkernel).

  • mod (ObjectCode, optional) – The ObjectCode object associated with this kernel. If not provided, a placeholder ObjectCode will be created. Note that without a proper ObjectCode, certain operations may be limited.
